Hi,

The suspension arm, think thats what its called (drivers side) is rattling a bit in the ball joint (was noticed by wheel fitter and he said it was getting loose) He said it looked like something had hit it, i.e. debris and last week I drove over a brick on the motorway and thought it was going to come through the floor. Just wondering if this is a big job to replace i.e. ££££££££'s ??

Thanks.

bottom arm

Hi
replaced both on the wifes earlier this year,really easy to do you have to remove the bottom covers to get at the bolts, I replaced them with steel type replacements cost £120 each from eurocar parts they did have cheaper replacements around the £60 mark, There different for each side (handed).

Thanks for that Bob.T. Much appreciated.

Will speak to my mechanic as I can just about change a bulb, anything more than that and it's out of my hands :Oops:
